Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If traditional colorspace models are used for edge detection, then the detection process is simple, but the detection accuracy varies across different environments and targets
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adapts the colorspace model based on the detected environment and target characteristics. Instead of using a fixed colorspace, the system selects or transforms to the most appropriate colorspace (RGB, HSV, LAB, YUV, etc.) according to the histogram analysis of the target environment, thereby achieving both high detection accuracy and environmental adaptability
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the parameters of the colorspace model by analyzing the histogram of the target environment and selecting optimal color thresholds and segmentation parameters. This allows the edge detection algorithm to adapt its parameters to match the specific characteristics of different environments and targets, resolving the contradiction between detection accuracy and environmental versatility
2Loss of information
If multiple color-channels are used to encode information, then the information storage capacity increases, but the complexity of detection and verification increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the information encoding into multiple color-channels (R, G, B, and additional channels) where each channel carries independent information. This segmentation allows the system to increase information storage capacity while maintaining detection simplicity, as each channel can be processed independently through histogram analysis and threshold comparison
Solution Approach 2:
The system creates equipotential detection conditions by using histogram-based analysis that treats all color-channels uniformly. The detection process compares the detected colorspace values against pre-determined thresholds for each channel, providing a consistent and simplified verification method regardless of the number of color-channels used, thus increasing information capacity without proportionally increasing detection complexity
3Reliability
If ultraviolet and infrared layers are added for secure verification, then the security level increases, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system achieves multi-functionality by using the same colorspace conversion and histogram analysis algorithm to process both visible color-channels and ultraviolet/infrared layers. The detection device uses a unified approach to analyze all layers, where the ultraviolet and infrared layers provide additional security verification without requiring separate complex processing paths, thus increasing security while minimizing the increase in device complexity
